Purpose

The Arch is the best project is a very sophisticated and exquisite, ego-boosting and mind-blowing (albeit perhaps a bit over-engineered) project which aims to prove Arch's superiority.

History

The project was initiated in April 2008 by long time Arch community member lucke as a simple shell script which provided irrefutable proof that "Arch is the best". Over the following weeks, this project gathered momentum and was ported to multiple different languages, both programming and verbal.

Tcl/Tk - A scripting language that is commonly used for rapid prototyping, scripted applications, GUIs and testing.

#!/usr/bin/env tclsh
puts "Arch is the best!"

Vala - "Vala is a new programming language that aims to bring modern programming language features to GNOME developers without imposing any additional runtime requirements and without using a different ABI compared to applications and libraries written in C"
